Running to provide free meals for the community
Wakari, Dunedin
Pātaka Ora ki Araiteuru Marae provides a safe space where food for all the community can be shared together and people are welcomed, supported, and encouraged to have a sense of community and belonging. Pātaka Ora is volunteer run and practical resources and funds are donated by sponsors. We alternate between a lunch time meal and an evening meal.
To raise funds for Pātaka Ora, a team of runners will be running various distances during the Dunedin marathon on the 15th September.
Full marathon: Lydia
Half marathon: Teo, Raheel, Maggie, Greg
10km: Celine, Isabel, Andrew, Andy, Rebecca, Lily
5km run & walk: Joe, Caroline, Tania, Tara, Lim
The money will be used for the hireage of the space, power and gas costs. It will also enable us to purchase food items and/or kitchen equipment and cleaning supplies when required.
